My group recently setup a new TFS hosted git repository. I'm able to connect fine, and do everything as expected, except each time it is prompting me for permissions.

I'm running git on a linux box, inside the company firewall, but not associated with the domain.

I did a bit of digging, and didn't see much information on caching my credentials. Does anyone have any insight on where to store at least my active directory username so I can avoid the prompt?

  • You should be able to use the credential helper mechanisms in git against TFS; hopefully the above link will help. – Edward Thomson Nov 05 '13 at 17:57

I got prompted for my AD credentials once, and then wasn't prompted again.

  • Thanks for all your help! Sometimes it takes someone reading the question in a different way than I was asking to get me headed in the right direction. – Kevin Brill Nov 06 '13 at 22:58
